Vic Mensa recently formed his own punk band called 93PUNX and shared a cover of Cranberries’ “Zombie.” Now, he’s back with the a new song called “Camp America,” which comes with a powerful video that shows white children in orange jumpsuits enjoying being imprisoned and tortured.
“The song’s lyrics were inspired by ICE director Matthew Albence comparing the immigration detention centers to summer camps,” Mensa said. “I thought that was a crazy fucking idea and wanted to create a world with this song that imagined that twisted alternate reality, where it was fun for kids to be held as prisoners, drinking out of toilets, away from their parents, and somehow enjoy it like one might at a summer camp.”
The 93PUNX album is coming soon.
